The five 100-1 outsiders who won the Grand National : Features : Grand National The five 100-1 outsiders who won the Grand National Free Bet Mon Mome was the last 100-1 Grand National winner. Dan Fitch takes a look back at the five 100-1 outsiders, who defied the odds to win the Grand National. The Grand National course at Aintree has a reputation of being the toughest event in racing. Run over a distance of four miles and 876 yards and punctuated by 30 challenging fences, it's little wonder that sometimes the form book can go out of the window and a rank outsider can win the race. Since the race was first ran in 1839, there have been a handful of occasions when a real no-hoper shocked the nation by winning at Aintree. Here are the five 100-1 outsiders to have won the Grand National. 1928 - Tipperary Tim The first 100-1 horse to win the Grand National was Tipperary Tim.

As the race was about to start, Tipperary Tim's jockey William Dutton heard a friend call out "Billy boy, you'll only win if all the others fall down." As fate would have it, 41 of the 42 riders did fall down, leaving Tipperary Tim to win the race ahead of the re-mounted Billy Barton. The two horses were the only finishers, after a melee at the Canal Turn in treacherous weather conditions. 1929 - Gregalach One year after Tipperary Tim made history, Gregalach became the second successive 100-1 shot to win the Grand National. The horse was given such lengthy odds having fallen at Sandown, just eight days prior to the race at Aintree. Gregalach's jockey Robert Everett rode a clever race in which he gradually gained ground on the leaders and overtook the legendary Easter Hero on the second to last fence, before winning the race by six lengths. 1947 - Caughoo As if the fact that the 100-1 outsider Caughoo won the 1947 Grand National isn't exciting enough, legend has it that his victory wasn't exactly legit.

With the Aintree course covered in a thick fog, it has long been rumoured that Caughoo hid behind a fence in the early stages of the race, only to emerge towards the end of the race and win by 20 lengths. Caughoo's jockey Eddie Dempsey was beaten up by another rider after the race, but it seems that this was unwarranted, as photographic evidence emerged years later, clearly showing Caughoo jumping Becher's Brook on two separate occasions. 1967 - Foinavon The most famous 100-1 winner of them all was Foinavon, who entered into Grand National folklore by winning the race amidst a mass pile-up and ended up having a fence named after him. Foinavon was lagging behind the other 27 remaining runners, as they approached the 23rd fence. Popham Down veered wildly to the right as it came to the fence, which resulted in a melee. The only horse to jump the fence first time was Foinavon, who was lagging so far behind that his jockey John Buckingham could steer away from trouble. Although 17 re-mounted horses gave chase, no one could catch Foinavon.

2009 - Mon Mome A total of 42 years passed after Foinavon's victory, before Mon Mome became the next 100-1 winner of the Grand National. Venitia Williams became only the second woman to train a Grand National winner, while Mon Mome's jockey Liam Treadwell rode the horse to victory on his Grand National debut. Grand National: Mon Mome, 100-1 winner in 2009, is retired - BBC Sport Grand National: Mon Mome, 100-1 winner in 2009, is retired 2 Apr 2013 From the section Horse Racing Share this page 4-6 April Coverage: Mon Mome, the 100-1 winner of the 2009 Grand National, has been retired. Trainer Venetia Williams said the 13-year-old would spend his retirement at her stables in Herefordshire. Mon Mome went on to finish third in the 2010 Cheltenham Gold Cup won by Imperial Commander, who is top weight for this year's National on Saturday.

Under jockey Liam Treadwell, he was the first 100-1 shot to win since Foinavon in 1967 and there has been no longer-priced winner in the race's history. He had not won since his Aintree victory, when he beat previous winner Comply Or Die by 12 lengths, and was pulled up on what turned out to be his last appearance at Warwick on 10 March. The French-bred Mon Mome won six of his 53 races. Williams told the Racing Post: "He's been an amazing horse to train and gave me the best day of my career when winning the Grand National.

"He showed a bit of form at Wincanton earlier this year, but has not run anything like that since and we've decided to retire him, as that was going to be the plan at the end of this season anyway." Treadwell said: "Mon Mome gave me a fantastic day when he won the Grand National, but it was not just that; I was also second on him as a conditional in the Welsh National and at my first Cheltenham Festival I was fourth on him in one of the handicaps, so he meant a great deal to me for all sorts of reasons. "He was a brilliant horse to ride, a real gentleman, and I owe him a lot." Share this page Mon Mome wins 2009 Grand National at Aintree - Telegraph Horse Racing Mon Mome wins 2009 Grand National at Aintree A rookie jockey, a former bridge international and only the second woman to train a Grand National winner on Saturday delivered the biggest shock in more than 40 years at Aintree when 100-1 shot Mon Mome won racing's biggest prize.

Long shot: Mon Mome is the biggest-priced winner since Foinavon in 1967 Photo: PA By Paul Kelso, Chief Sports Reporter 4:45PM BST 04 Apr 2009 1st: Mon Mome (100-1) 2nd: Comply or Die (14-1) 3rd: My Will (8-1) 4th: State of Play (14-1) Mon Mome, trained by Venetia Williams and owned by Vida Bingham, who twice represented England at bridge, is the longest-priced horse to win the National since Foinavon famously avoided a mass pile-up to triumph at the same price in 1967. Jockey Liam Treadwell was having his first ride in the race. No horse in the 162-year history of the race has ever won at a longer price and the result was a huge relief to bookmakers, who estimated a recession-defying £250 million was gambled on the race nationwide.

Williams, who was knocked unconscious when becoming one of only 14 women to ride in the race in 1988, joins Jenny Pitman as the only women to train a Grand National winner. Mon Mome's 10th place last year was her previous best result. Related Articles Grand National 04 Apr 2009 After the action was delayed by two false starts that were met with boos from the 70,000 crowd, Mon Mome spent much of the race anonymously tucked on the inside rail as more-fancied horses made the running. As the field crossed the Melling Road for the last time, Mon Mome was among a dozen horses in with a chance, and after becoming briefly boxed in emerged strongest on the run-in to win by 12 lengths. Last year's winner, Comply or Die, was second, with Ruby Walsh's mount, My Will, third and former Hennessy winner State of Play fourth. Pre-race favourite Butler's Cabin, ridden by Tony McCoy, was hampered by errors and could finish only seventh, leaving the champion jockey still searching for his first National winner after 14 attempts.

Treadwell, who only turned to jumps racing after conceding he could not consistently make the weight as a Flat jockey, revealed that he had rejected his mother's pre-race suggestion that he get a haircut in case he was interviewed on television as the winner. "I said 'Don't be silly, I'd be happy just to get round'. It's an absolutely unbelievable finish, I had the perfect run through the race, he jumped brilliant for me. It hasn't sunk in yet. All I can say at this moment in time is it is unbelievable." Williams said: "It was just unbelievable. I'm so proud of the horse. I'm so proud of Liam for giving him such a good ride.''

The result means Mon Mome's trainer, Venetia Williams , becomes only the second women to ever train a National winner. Mon Mome moved into the race soon after turning for home and began to ease away from his rivals after jumping the final fence to emulate Foinavon, who also won at odds of 100-1, back in 1967. Williams admitted she was stunned at Mon Mome's victory, adding: "How can you ever expect that in a race like this? "It was just unbelievable, the owner was watching the wrong horse for the first part of the race and she thought it was out the back. "I'm so proud of the horse.

I'm so proud of [jockey] Liam [Treadwell] for giving him such a good ride, and the girl who looks after him as well. "I'm so proud of everyone in the yard - I never get chance to praise them and give them the credit they deserve, it is all a team effort." Mon Mome was well clear approaching the Elbow and passed the post well ahead of last year's winner Comply Or Die (14-1). My Will (8-1) was third while former Hennessy Gold Cup winner State Of Play (14-1) was fourth. After the race Treadwell insisted it had been an absolute pleasure to ride Mon Mome. He said: "It's an absolutely unbelievable finish, I had the perfect run through the race, he jumped brilliant for me. "It hasn't sunk in yet, all I can say at this moment in time is it is unbelievable. A couple of times loose horses fell upsides me and went under his legs but it didn't really affect the horse. "He gave me such a great ride. He was an absolute pleasure to ride. He is so genuine.

I had a quick look round but I wasn't really sure how far in front I was." There were still plenty in with chances with two to jump but it was Mon Mome - only 10th in the race last year - who went to the front after jumping the final fence under 23-year-old Treadwell. Tony McCoy's mount Butler's Cabin was sent off 7-1 favourite, and although he got round, he never really got involved in a race which remarkably saw two false starts. Final result 1. Mon Mome (Liam Treadwell) 100-1 2. Comply Or Die (Timmy Murphy) 14-1 3. My Will (Ruby Walsh), 8-1 4. State of Play (Paul Moloney), 14-1 BBC Sport - Horse Racing - Mon Mome seals shock National win As it happened Archive - Outsider Mon Mome wins National The 100-1 chance Mon Mome caused a massive shock with a superb display to win the Grand National at Aintree.

Trained by Venetia Williams in Herefordshire and ridden by Liam Treadwell on his Grand National debut, the nine-year-old won by 12-lengths. He jumped the last alongside last year's winner Comply or Die but pulled away after the final fence. Comply or Die (14-1) held off My Will (8-1) for second, with Welsh-trained State of Play (14-1) in fourth. I'm so proud of everyone in the yard - I never get chance to praise them and give them the credit they deserve Venetia Williams Mon Mome was the first 100-1 shot to win since Foinavon in the freak 1967 race, and there has been no longer-priced winner in the race's 162 runnings. Williams, a former Grand National jockey, became only the second woman after Jenny Pitman (Corbiere in 1983 and Royal Athlete in 1995) to train a National winner. In a keenly contested race, there were still around a dozen horses in with chances with two fences to go - and Treadwell's mount was among those nicely in contention.

He kept Mon Mome out of trouble on the outside and a strong run between the last two fences left him at the head of the field alongside Comply or Die. But he crucially carried six pounds less than the 2008 winner, and in the end that weight difference proved vital. 606: DEBATE I know it's French-bred, but if you look at the other keys trends then you could not rule out the winner Grahame1971 A delighted Williams, whose own riding career was ended prematurely by a broken neck in a fall at Worcester, said afterwards: "How can you ever expect that in a race like this? "It was just unbelievable, the owner was watching the wrong horse for the first part of the race and she thought it was out the back. "I'm so proud of the horse. I'm so proud of Liam for giving him such a good ride, and the girl who looks after him as well.

"I'm so proud of everyone in the yard - I never get chance to praise them and give them the credit they deserve, it is all a team effort." Treadwell added: "It's an absolutely unbelievable finish, I had the perfect run through the race, he jumped brilliant for me. "A couple of times loose horses fell upsides me and went under his legs but it didn't really affect the horse. "He gave me such a great ride. He was an absolute pleasure to ride. He is so genuine." Winning 'unbelievable' - Treadwell Although he was a comfortable winner, Treadwell was unsure where his nearest challengers were at the finish: "I had a quick look round but I wasn't really sure how far in front I was." The 7-1 favourite Butler's Cabin finished back in seventh meaning Tony McCoy is still waiting for his first Grand National victory. Jonjo O'Neill's charge needed medical treatment afterwards but recovered. However, Irish challenger Hear The Echo from the Mouse Morris yard collapsed on the run-in and later died. Bookmakers hailed the success for Mon Mome as their best-ever Grand National win. Ladbrokes spokesman David Williams said: "It was better than we could ever have dreamed of.

Liam Treadwell was our saviour. A win for Walsh or McCoy would have seen a multi million pound turnaround. "The sun shone on Aintree and the sun shone on the bookies. If last year was one for the punters, 2009 was very much one for us." Aintree Grand National 1. Mon Mome (L Treadwell) 100-1 2. Comply Or Die (T J Murphy) 14-1 3. My Will (R Walsh) 8-1 4. State of Play (Paul Moloney) 14-1 40 ran 100-1 shot Mon Mome wins Grand National - USATODAY.com 100-1 shot Mon Mome wins Grand National Posted E-mail | Print | LIVERPOOL, England (AP)  Mon Mome, a 100-1 shot, won the Grand National at Aintree by 12 lengths Saturday, with the world's most famous steeplechase again marred by a horse death. Mon Mome was ridden by Liam Treadwell over the grueling 4{ miles.

The 9-year-old matched Foinavon in 1967 as the biggest long shot to win this race. Hear The Echo collapsed and died a few hundred yards from the finish. He was the fifth horse to die this year in the three-day meet. Butler's Cabin, one of the pre-race favorite, also collapsed and had to be given oxygen. Last year, a horse had to be put down after it unseated the jockey, then crashed into a barrier. Not counting Saturday's race, the British charity Animal Aid has determined that a dozen horses have died during the Grand National. Forty horses started the 162nd running of the race, which was delayed by two false starts. The winner pulled away after jumping the last of the 30 fences. Comply or Die, a 14-1 shot who won last year, was second. My Will finished third, ahead of State of Play. "I had the perfect run through the race," Treadwell said. "He jumped brilliant for me. ... He gave me such a great ride. He was an absolute pleasure to ride.

He is so genuine." Mon Mome, 10th last year, is trained by Venetia Williams, whose career as an amateur jockey ended shortly after falling in the 1988 Grand National. Williams became only the second woman after 1983 and 1995 winner Jenny Pitman to train a National winner. "It was just unbelievable," Williams said. "The owner was watching the wrong horse for the first part of the race and she thought it was out the back. I'm so proud of the horse. I'm so proud of Liam for giving him such a good ride."

While every year this great race has something new to shout about the 1993 event will go done in history as- This National that wasn't. When the race was started Richard Dunwoody got the tape stuck round his neck and a false start was given. Unfortunately the flagman did not see the flag so he never signalled for a false start. Consequently some horses stopped at the start and some horses stopped halfway while 7 carried on to complete the course with "Esha Ness" and John White winning for trainer Jenny Pitman only to be told that the race was void. Hopefully such an incident will never happen again.
